/**
 * The purpose of this class is to enable capturing and passing a generic
 * {@link Type}. In order to capture the generic type and retain it at runtime,
 * you need to create a subclass (ideally as anonymous inline class) as follows:
 *
 * <pre class="code">
 * ParameterizedTypeReference&lt;List&lt;String&gt;&gt; typeRef = new ParameterizedTypeReference&lt;List&lt;String&gt;&gt;() {
 * };
 * </pre>
 *
 * <p>
 * The resulting {@code typeRef} instance can then be used to obtain a
 * {@link Type} instance that carries the captured parameterized type
 * information at runtime. For more information on "super type tokens" see the
 * link to Neal Gafter's blog post.
 *
 * @param <T>
 *            the referenced type
 * @see <a href="https://gafter.blogspot.nl/2006/12/super-type-tokens.html">Neal
